A program I wrote to utilize a genetic algorithm in conjunction with antenna tools. Using NEC2 as a processor, an intermediate file with genetic variations can be made, which is especially useful for finding the maximum gain on unknown designs like Yagi-Uda antennas.

:. Project / Genetic Antenna Modifier

This is a MatLab program I wrote to use a genetic algorithm to modify the parameters of a antenna and eventually "give birth" to a "best known case" antenna based upon forward gain, etc. Currently, it uses NEC2 (Numerical Electromagnetics Code 2) as the processing engine. It writes out a text file to disk, then calls NEC2 to process that file. I am in the process of entirely rewriting a combination of NEC and this program in a C++ framework to be more extensible and robust.
